Google apps whitelist hardcoded into Chromium open source project

Re: Google apps whitelist hardcoded into Chromium open source project
#32What whitelist? JS Execution? No popup blocking? Something else?
Did a bit of digging - it lets NACL apps downloaded from those whitelisted Google apis have access to "dev interfaces". Brief search shows that these dev interfaces would have the ability to access the user's PC outside of the Chrome sandbox. In effect, this gives Google remote code execution rights from their domains on anybody running Chromium.

The comment seems perfectly valid so I can't figure out why that would happen...

Does anybody know why (variations on copies of) leokun's comment are automatically marked as dead? The comment seems perfectly valid so I can't figure out why that would happen...

"We don't enable NaCl on the web at large because we don't want to see a particular instruction set baked into the web. We enable it for apps that are in the Chrome Web Store (even hosted apps which are in the web) because it's a place where over time we can get developers to migrate to PNaCl. For this whitelist, we have similar controls to what we have on the Chrome Web Store, and our goal is to eventually remove the need for it altogether."
